AKTV/Paul Ryan Tan

The PBA Office has approved the following trades which involve Global Port Batang Pier (on 2 different transactions)

1. A direct swap that brings Rabeh Al Hussaini to Talk and Text for the very controversial Japeth Aguilar who gets his wish to be traded, He is now with Global Port Batang Pier. 
 
2. Meralco dealt Solomon Mercado, JP Belencion, Yousif Aljamal and Kelly Nabong for Global Port's Rey Guevarra, Josh Vanlandingham, Vic Manuel and a 2015 draft pick.

Both camps, Meralco and Global Port find this trade healthy as it is their way of rebuilding their team. 

Sol Mercado has expressed on his Twitter account that he has been grateful for the playing time/growth given to him by Meralco and expressed his excitement as he plays with Batang Pier stars Gary David and Willie Miller. 

Meanwhile, Rabeh Al Hussaini would be reunited with college mentor Norman Black in Tropang Texters.  

With the trade, Japeth should play his A-game with Batang Pier because this is what he wanted.
